It was a very odd thread. From his reading the Amazon sample of his book we discovered he wrote the book in gaol in St Lucia. However simultaneously he wrote he read many science books in gaol while simultaneously fighting for the gaol to obtain a library. It didn't add up.
In addition, he said he was in gaol in St Lucia, for missing a court date because his company had a funding problem over a 250 acre development. That didn't make sense either. A director of a company doesn't go to gaol unless a crime has been committed by the director. Missing a court date is just a corporate fine. I did have a look at court records and various scams going on in St Lucia and it is my guess that he was a minor player in a scam that forged property titles, sold them to a promoter who then on sold them to overseas investors. The "bad" property title is then "revealed" and the overseas victims can't get their money back. The process is then repeated.......until he got arrested.
The book was complete nonsense and my "gut feeling" was that he plagiarized lots of unrelated scientific mumbo jumbo and put it into a small book combined with complete fantasy. His intent was to make money selling the book to idiots however, as he had no scientific background himself, his book is so ridiculous that no one was interested. I assume he started to post here to promoted the book as he also started posting the same post on other forums.
